My finger nails are going yellow and weak for some reason, any ideas what to do and what's the cause?

Your diet has been poor lately.


You are smoking or smoking more.


You lack dark green vegetables in your diet.


Could be a magnesium deficiency.


Weak hair and or nails generally are a sign of poor diet or an underlying sickness.My finger nails are going yellow and weak for some reason, any ideas what to do and what's the cause?
You most probably smoke, don't you!My finger nails are going yellow and weak for some reason, any ideas what to do and what's the cause?
Could be fungal nail infection. My big toe nail is just like that. Visit your doctor for confirmation of this and he wlill probably give you a six week course of tablets which should clear it up. Good luck.
Are you on any type of (new) medication? Because that's a real common side affect....But it could be a fungus too, you should then go to the nearest pharmacy there is enough to cure that without a prescription.


If medication is the reason, you should use extra calcium (in tablet form) to strenghten your nail stucture.
smoking or a very bad diet either that your black and dont wash but i think its smoking mostly if you smoke
Sounds like it could be a fungal infection OR if you are a smoker this will stain your nails yellow.. if your a smoker you could try giving up (easier said than done I know - Im a smoker) or put a base coat of nail polish on your nails and this will stop the stain going onto your nail... if you think its an infection there are plenty of products you can use that you can buy over the counter at a pharmacy. HTH..
Well it's due to a nutricional deficiency. Your liver is probably in a poor way or its due to a lack of calcium or zinc, EFA deficiency or low stomach acid.





*Eat broccoli, sprouts,cabbage,chicory,amaranth, all seeds.





*drink nettle tea(it's a panacea for delivering nutrients to the body)





* take the herb milk thistle in 2 capsules a day.





good luck
I smoke and my nails are not yellow. Another urban myth.
you are probably decomposing
It's probably:


(a) you're a smoker,


(b) you've got a bad diet, or


(c) you wear nail polish too often





Solve it by:


(a) quitting smoking,


(b) improving your diet, or


(c) not wearing nail polish.
You may have some sort of fungus it would be in your best interest to see a physician. Or if you don't want to go to the doctor then use an over the counter anti-fungal medicine which may cost anywhere from $6.00 - $20.00. That is if you want the good medicine.
first sign of calcium deficiency !!





drink 2 glasses milk of milk daily (morning and night) to keep regular calcium intake.





include calcium rich foods such as cheddar cheese in your daily diet





you also get calcium chews / tablets from the pharmacy but proper diet is the way to go.





you get some nail strengthening moisturisers and also some nail applicators that say it can make your nails stronger. you can use them but without the right diet, your nails will continue to suffer.





if problems continue after few months of regular calcium intake - see your doctor





good luck !
Any chance your a smoker?!
Bad diet or a fungal infection. Eat better and/or see your doctor!
Oh my god have you seen a doctor you in big trouble!!! Kidding it's a lack of some or other vitamin. Easy to solve just takes a while
try the hand spa! and dont use nail polishes, posibilities that your nails become pail and black they can die! see a manicurist he/she can help you!
yeah, fags, or fungus. Stop smoking or beg (beg!!) your doctor for antifungals, as appropriate.
they've gone brittle





ask your doctor for some treatment, happened to me
If you paint your nails frequently without using a conditioning Base varnish first, your nail surface will turn slightly yellow.





Take Zinc supplements also as this tends to strenghen your nails and are less likely to break, and condition your hands with Almond oil cream to keep your skin and nails moisturised.
sounds like a fungal infection or a poor diet. Go and see your doctor
you either smoke, you it is a fungal infection, go to your doctors about it.
i dont actually know what causes it lol, but to prevent it put one coat of rimmel london nail whitener (not for nail tips, as in french manicure, you put it on your whole nail) you will find this in boots. put one coat on each nail. be sure not to get actual white polish, this thing is more of a treatment for the nails, its a transparent white colour.





and once you have this, you need opi nail envy, this is great, it makes your nails hard, shiny, smooth and glossy, and it also contains iron and calcium which your nails absorb, i have both these products myself, they work wonders! i had the exact same problam, now i have perfect nails! oh and you can find opi nail envy in boots too, if you dont want it from there they have it on ebay too. hope this helps! xx











oh ps you can put both these on as a varnish base coat too!
the yellowness in your fingernails can be caused by a number of things


:poor diet


:and a proper body cleansing program


:also a vitamin deficiency usually zinc





i reccommend you buy zinc supplements and


improve your diet ad loads of fresh fruit and veg


instead of chocalte have nuts





if the problem persists i recommend talking to your doctor and you not be afraid





all the best iz
do you smoke? if yes then the answer is staring at you in the face.
